    The author integrates the new scientific view of the universe with a rereading of the Genesis creation narratives. He introduces a reading of the human being as Vicar of God in light of \"precomprehension\" offered by science and the ecological crisis. New biblical interpretation of the unique role of humanity is compelled both by increased scientific knowledge of the cosmos and also by ecological destruction. In particular, the ecological crisis has emphasized that human domination of the world may destroy it. Interpreting Genesis from a New Testament viewpoint, particularly from the writings that announce a \"new creation\" performed by Jesus Christ, may remake the original mission of Vicar of God and lead Creation, affected by sin, to the new reality that it longs for

    Properties and Decays of the Bc+B_c^+ meson

    Full text link
    Recent studies of properties and decays of the Bc+B_c^+ meson by the LHC experiments are presented. Mass and lifetime measurements are discussed and some of the many new observed decays are reported.Comment: Presented at the 2014 Flavor Physics and CP Violation (FPCP-2014), Marseille, France, May 26-30 2014, 10 pages, 6 figure

    Z_2-graded Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the Grassmann algebra

    Full text link
    We consider the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra E over a field F of characteristic 0 or p, where p>2, and we compute its Z_2-graded Gelfand-Kirillov dimension as a Z_2-graded PI-algebra
